It’s officially mid-September and Team Umarex has just gotten settled back into their normal routines after having attended the 2024 Pyramyd Air Cup in Marengo, Ohio. Due to a weird w...

The author with the Gauntlet 2 .22 caliber PCP.  This rifle features a 24 CI tank that pressurizes to 4,500 PSI. 

Pre-Charged Pneumatics are and have been increasingly popular for the past decade. With each new airgun there’s always a list of specifications that are published. People like myse...

Value and Innovation are two things that rank highly in what we do. We love to give our customers a whole lot of bang for their buck and give them an airgun shooting experience that is just not found everywhere. For some products these two features align to a great deal, and on some other produ...
